Don't Jump Up and Down on the Bed. You'll Break The Springs

Pawlenty, Bachmann, Palin, Gingrich, Huckabee and whomever else is pretending to run just to increase their tired book sales are in a presidential debate and don't even seem to know it. First, they are running against an incumbent President. There are challenges to our country and the world we've never seen before in the history of mankind.

Obama does make mistakes, missteps and errors, but he admits it and goes on to handling it, whether one agrees with his policies or procedures or not. He does what he says he's going to do and when he can't there is a reason for it. Each of those rotten little minds probably deeply admire the man in private. They must know they couldn't even handle a broken off piece of what President Obama is being so Mr. Cool about.

Obama has the opportunity to go for a landslide victory in 2012 and he knows it. Difficult yes with the opposition dead set against him. Listening to his speech on Libya last night I thought of Gene Roddenberry, Star Trek, Captain Kirk and the Intergalactic Council. There were the bone headed people, The Vulcans, the Lizard looking folks and every other sort of being at the table. They were there representing their own interests, together in intergalactic community. Together, to keep peace and harmony and their way of life humming along. There were rogue planet inhabitants and creatures to deal with but we always understood the mission of the Enterprise and its crew.

Obama is a good manager. I believe he has proven that in his two years in office. My guess, he's a good bet for another term in 2012, but then again I voted for Obama. I'm down for the whole eight years. It has become a late night, talk show joke to watch those freak shows toe dip into the impossibility of becoming president. These would-be candidates are in a debate and they are losing in front of the world. These pretend, wannabes jump out there with what they would do if they were President. But they are disadvantaged by needing to appeal to their extreme right constituencies.

The Repugs strategy appears to be piled on criticism even if they agree. Obama must be made wrong and bad for America. Why else would they run? It's almost laughable that anyone would consider Michelle Bachmann handling Libya or budget cuts and Palin, please. The others would most likely big foot their way across the Arab world and compromise the international relationship building Obama is working hard to create. Destroyed in one fell swoop by these Godzillas. They demonstrate little access to nuance. Just big, fat cats who've never had to think past how much it will cost and who they have to crush to get what they want. What I recommend is they look at what's happening in Wisconsin and what Wisconsin has caused and inspired in the working class throughout this nation. The Repugs need to know and be warned that there will be no crushing without a serious fight. "We The People" will not roll over or be mowed down by lies and destructive policies. Egypt started a domino effect and Egypt is in Africa, the motherland, lest we forget where humanity began.

These knuckleheads are losing the debate everyday they wake up and there's another earth shattering issue on the table. Obama has changed the conversation. The theatre has moved to the world stage and America and it's little budget deficit spending problems don't seem as important in that venue.

The Repugs using spoiled brat, school-yard tactics to bring a great man down are passe and when we leave the world stage we will not buy it any longer. Obama stood up last night and whether one agreed with his policies or not, he said and did what he said he was going to do. He did what he promised in his presidential campaign. It seems Obama has a pattern of doing what he says he's going to do. Obama is not his birth certificate. President Obama has established himself as the possibility of integrity. Integrity makes small people cringe. It makes them hate and look even smaller.

Where are the tall Republicans? Why are they hiding? Where are the ones with real integrity? I'm not talking about the big foot Chris Christie or the demure Mitch Daniels who give a ideological performance of integrity. Real integrity stands up and takes the punches. Real integrity always has a leg to stand on. Please Repugs, you would be candidates, stop jumping up and down on the bed. You'll break the springs, then mommy and daddy will have to pay for it.
